Elite Ukrainian operators eliminate no fewer than 500 Wagner fighters in a single operation after Russian unit turns around and flees, fully exposing Wagner’s flank -largest tactical victory for Ukraine in months


Elite Ukrainian operators have eliminated no fewer than 500 Wagner fighters in a single operation after a Russian unit simply turned around and fled, fully exposing Wagner’s flank. This is the largest tactical victory for Ukraine in months.

Ukraine’s 3rd Assault Brigade, backed by T-64 tanks and M-113 APCs, was tasked with assaulting a chain of fortified defensive positions manned by elements of the 72nd Motor Rifle Brigade, a regular infantry unit, southwest of Bakhmut. The fortifications were roughly two kilometers deep and six kilometers long, with the 72nd Brigade covering Wagner’s flank.

While the tanks and APCs laid down heavy suppressive fire on the Russian positions, Ukrainian operators charged forward using automatic weapons and grenades to clear trenches, routing the defenders. According to battle reports, two entire Russian companies (anything between 200-300 men) were wiped out. The rest fled, with tanks in hot pursuit, firing at close range and causing devastating casualties.

Once the line of fortifications was cleared of defenders, Wagner’s flank became immediately exposed. Taken by surprise, the mercenaries stood zero chance. The operation further yielded combat vehicles and a number of prisoners.

Ukrainian units can now use this sector southwest of Bakhmut as a bridgehead from where to launch renewed assaults.

プーチンによるデッチ上げ事由で侵略戦争を始め、自己の権益・体制を堅持しようと試みているのですが、その愚かな野望は世界の正義感によって打ち砕かれているようです。願わくば、ロシア国民自身の手で、プーチン一派とFSB組織を壊滅させて欲しいものです。

かつてのスターリン時代のように、それぞれが“自分達も被害者だった“と言わせないようにしましょう。間違いなくプーチンに従ったものは全て犯罪への加担者です。日和見主義者を許してはなりません。
